In a world in which Trump is kidnapping and assassinating heads of state, many now see International law as weak and unenforceable. Join author, lawyer, and professor, Philippe Sands, as he argues that combating impunity — the ability of the powerful to escape accountability for atrocities — is more essential now than ever. Drawing on landmark cases, including the trial of Pinochet and his connection to the Nazi Walther Rauff, Sands shows that when the powerful evade accountability, it undermines global order. Sands contends that giving up on the law now amounts to giving up on order completely.
